In my chest I know
How he felt when they left, when they go
Every muscle, every tendon, every bone
Screams “No, please, don’t!”
And the flesh is just the flesh, just something to get past
All the tissues, all the cartilage, all of the soft fat
And if one day you must die, I want it to be
Inside me
Limb to limb, split spine to sternum
Ripped open and spread out, swallowed in my bowels
Anything to make you stay
Anything to make you stay
In my blood I’m the same
Everything I want to love, I degrade
Every muscle, every tendon, every bone
I take and humiliate
And the flesh is just the flesh, but when it’s all that you have left
It becomes the only thing you can keep of them
And when one day you know that they’re going to go
Your bones scream “No, please, don’t!”
Limb to limb, split spine to sternum
Ripped open and spread out, swallowed in my bowels
Anything to make you stay
Anything to make you stay
Every mess I make, I make on purpose
So I can lie in it when it’s over
The only things I have of you I keep
Underneath my skin, inside me
In my chest I know
How he felt when they left, when they go
